The 2012 program included 20 companies in the small business category (15-49 U.S. employees), 36 companies in the medium employers category (50-249 U.S. employees) and 44 companies in the large employer category (250 or more U.S. employees).
This is the first time 24Hr Homecare participated in the program. The Affordable Los Angeles senior caregiver, which has more than 40 workers, was selected because of the company's creative ways of keeping its employees happy in the workplace.
Tyner Slay, owner and cofounder of the in home care services Southern California, said the award is especially meaningful because the employees helped to decide the outcome. The annual awards program surveys employees about such areas as work environment, relationship with supervisor, role satisfaction, pay and benefits, corporate culture and communications.

Another way the company shows its appreciation is having "half-day Fridays" once a month.
